I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I know I did. I made sure I didn't have just one piece of pecan pie ...but two! When you only get it once a year you have to live it up.

I even talked some of the football viewers into playing a board game. Score!

After the big dinner a bunch of us went on a walk through the pastures to look at a group of my husbands Herefords. My four year old granddaughter Rowan got to drive the old Ford tractor for the first time. She did have lots of help from granddad John and our nephew Ben. She also got to throw hedge apples in the pond. She was in heaven. It was in the 70's, sunny and beautiful here in Kansas.

I even ventured out on Black Friday to one whole store. I bought a sequined sweater....so unlike me.

I just got back from St. Louis, Missouri where I was invited to give a trunk show and workshop at Merrily We Sew Along. http://www.merrilywesewalong.com/bernina/ This shop is only one year old but you would never believe it if you walked in the door. This shop is lovely! What a bunch of fun ladies. Merrily Parker has now invited me to both her shops. I went to her other shop Merrily We Quilt Along in Springfield, Missouri. http://merrilywequiltalong.com/ I love her customers. I would go back to both of her shops in a heartbeat!!!
